Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N509AB, a Learjet 60 built in 1996 with manufacturer's serial number 073. The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by LJ60-073 LLC based in Memphis, TN, US, which serves as the apparent operator/home base for this specific airframe.

The cabin for this airframe is configured to accommodate 11 seats, consistent with light-to-midsize business jet seating layouts appropriate for executive transport and small-group charter. Powered by 2× Pratt & Whitney Canada PW305A engines, the aircraft’s combinations of cruise speed (425 kts) and range (2,418 nm) support regional and transcontinental point-to-point missions from the owner/operator base in Memphis, TN, US. Typical mission profiles for this airframe would emphasize high-speed business travel and time-sensitive personnel movement within the aircraft's published range and operational ceiling. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on its twin PW305A engines and fleet age given the 1996 build year; detailed records are not published here.
The airframe is a member of the Learjet 60 family produced by Learjet Inc. / Bombardier, categorized as fixed-wing multi-engine and positioned for high-speed, medium-range business aviation. With a service ceiling of 51,000 ft and cruise performance of 425 kts, this particular Learjet 60 airframe aligns with operator needs for rapid point-to-point travel within its 2,418 nm range. Market valuation for this serial 073 example is recorded at $2,600,000, a figure relevant to resale and charter asset considerations for similarly equipped, mid-1990s production Learjet 60s.
